THE RAMBLER 12B Class History Lives of great men all remind us We can make our lives sublime, And departing leave behind us Footprints on the sands of time. Oh, that unforgettable day when our beloved class first graced the Tell City High School with its presence. We were sixteen in number and a brilliant bunch we were. Cold shivers chased each other up and down our spines when Mr. Locker hammered his knife on the window-sill for order in the Assembly. Then followed our greatest humiliation, ignorance of the line of march. Every one had a good laugh at our expense but all of us took it seriously except our star, Edwin Rauh, who did not seem to mind at all. After this the regular order of classes for the day followed. We thought that Latin was a delightful novelty and easy to master but Miss Smith soon brought us to our senses. Our best-liked class of that year was Algebra, of which Mr. Newman was teacher. Three of our members left us before the term expired, William Sandage, Edwin Rauh and Mozelle Blinzinger. When we became 9 A’s we gained a new member, our beloved reader, Nellie Seigfried, but she soon left us as she thought she could do better by taking a commercial course. At the mid-term promotion we became Sophomores and then we could laugh at the green Freshmen. Our outstanding entertainment of this year was our trip to Blue Wells with Mr. Lee as our sponser. Our star class this year was Geometry which we had in the Assembly and the Juniors and Seniors learned many things from us which even the teachers did not know. This year we all had a great shock. Mr. Locker left us to finish his degree at Terre Haute. Mr. Lewis flew in to fill his place and next came Mr. Hannah. We liked Mr. Hannah so well that we took him for our spon- ser in our Junior year. When we were Junior B’s a great calamity fell upon the school. Our beloved friend and teacher, Mr. Newman, passed to the other and better world where “the weary are at rest.” Mr. Hannah then became Superin- tendent and Mr. Botts, Principal. Mr. Botts was very unfortunate in hav- ing boils on his neck and also in forgetting to go to class sometimes. This year our class went to Brushy Fork to fish. Mr. Hannah caught one fish which was of such a great size that it wasn’t worth carrying home. When we were 11 As, two of our members, Anna Heubi and Victor Schriefer thought that we were too insignificant to be with so they joined the state- ly Seniors. The Seniors this year gave a Halloween Party at the Gym which we all attended. Finally we became Seniors but alas! our class had dwindled down to nine. We were small in number but by no means small in intellect. We will soon be through High School and then we will go out into the world and make it sit up and take notice of us.
